Fifteen of the world’s richest people call the Land of Lincoln home. And we’re pleased to announce that those 15 billionaires, along with 12.8 million other residents, can now get primo homeowners insurance in Illinois (without spending a fortune).

Because most of us aren’t billionaires — or even millionaires — Esurance offers great rates on fully customizable insurance, designed to fit your modern lifestyle and your needs.

Owning a home in Illinois

According to Zillow, Illinois home values have gone up 5.8 percent since last year. Even still, with a median home value of $148,600 (or $118 per square foot), the Prairie State is still a relatively affordable place to buy a home.

Additionally, if you live in Illinois, you have a better chance of owning a Frank Lloyd Wright home than anywhere else in the nation (presumably). The famous architect spent the first 20 years of his career in Oak Park and the state is generously peppered with his classic, light-filled homes.

Just be prepared to plunk down a pretty penny if one happens to come on the market. Frank Lloyd Wright homes can range in price from $690K to $5.6 million!

Homeowners insurance in Illinois

Every home is different and every homeowner unique. Your homeowners policy should fit your individual needs.

To make it easy for Illinois homeowners to find the right level of protection for them, we provide a wide range of coverages, including:

Other structures protectionYour homeowners insurance doesn’t just protect your home — it also extends coverage to structures unattached to your home, like a gazebo, shed, fence, or stand-alone garage.

Additional living expense coverageIf a fire (or another covered incident) damages your home and you need somewhere to stay, we’ll help cover your hotel bill, food costs, and other reasonable extra expenses for up to 12 months.

Fire department charges coverageBelieve it or not, many fire departments charge fees for responding to a call. This coverage gives you $500 to cover those charges. And, if you want more, you can get as much as $5,500 in coverage.

Identity theft expense coverageFor just $3 a month ($4 if you’re getting coverage for 2 people), we’ll help you prevent ID theft and recover from it.

Bundling homeowners and car insurance in Illinois

Since Esurance also offers car insurance in Illinois, customers who choose to bundle their policies together can save with the Multi-Policy discount.

In fact, when you bundle, you could save up to 10 percent on your homeowners insurance AND save on your car insurance too.
